I love Pandora!. This is a great app! It is easy to use. It knows about every artist so you can create radio stations based on the most well known or most obscure artists. About 2 of my channels don't seem to really get the artist that the channel is built around but I have about 80 channels & that is the rare exception. This means I have about 78 channels that totally get the artist the channel is built around. I needed help once from Pandora. I emailed them & got a reply almost immediately. I could not ask for more! I gave this 4 stars because twice I have picked up my iPhone to see what song was playing and the way I picked up the phone gave it the thumbs down. The song stopped immediately. The first time I never heard that artist again. And he is one of my favorites! The second time just happened so I don’t know if that will happen again. My phone was plugged in so the display was always up. I tried to scroll back and give the song the thumbs up, but I still never heard the first artist again. I am so sad. I wish you had to confirm the thumbs down. Then this would not have happened.

It’s the little things. I’ve been a long time user of pandora.. since middle school days which is more than 10 years, and I love every aspect of it, especially as a premium user.. but it’s getting to the point where it’s becoming repetitive.. for the longest Pandora would introduce me to new music based off of songs or artists I liked and that’s how I discovered new music.. but now if I try to find new music based off a song it just adds the music I’ve thumbed on other stations so I have to dislike a majority of the songs I liked on another station to make the station I’m listening to have similar music.. I’m all about listening to repeated songs.. but after awhile it gets tiring Another issue I’ve been having lately is the clearing of my offline stations/songs/ artist/ ect every time I’m logged out of the app which has been happening recently. Idky, and I don’t realize it until I’m at a point that I need to go offline. It’s the little things that really effect my feelings on this app. I would love to keep using it and being a premium member.. but if I wanna just repeat songs I’ll use and MP3 player

It Used to Work. Pandora used to be my go-to music app. I was introduced to artists I never knew existed because they were similar to what I already enjoyed. When I got a new car with SYNC3, Pandora was rock solid. I could move from house to car and back without missing a beat. But several months ago, Pandora started having problems. When I get in the car, especially when using CarPlay, there’s no better than a 10% chance that I’ll be able to open Pandora, select a playlist and actually hear music. Most of the time it will give me a list of my playlists, but selecting a playlist just snaps back and does nothing no matter how many times I select it. Sometimes the app on the phone tells me “Poor network connection”, or its stuck asking me to start a free trial, or there’s a “Skip to Pandora” button. But you know what’s not there? Music! My home wi-fi is unchanged. There are no new cell towers. I have at least three bars. There is no reason why I can’t do today what I did for months without any problems, and that’s listen to music. So I have deleted the app and reinstalled twice. If I have to delete again, there won’t be another installation. And that’s sad because an app that once brought me so much good music and introduced me to so many artists, now brings only daily frustration.

Slimy sales tricks. Classless.. Barely able to navigate app due to the overwhelming number of adds that they jam down your throat. Back to back Pop ups that require you to close, lazily slopped together commercials, and if that wasn't enough the variety of songs is pitiful. After the first 7 songs it just goes to a loop where I hear the same familiar songs day in and out. For how little this app provides it's not worth sitting through horrible repetitive commercials and closing swarms of pop up ads. Goodbye pandora. (3 month later-update) If I had the money to buy out pandora I would. Upon owning the company I would then run it straight into the ground and erase its existence from the planet. How you have managed to create a music listening experience that is so horrible is beyond me. Your listeners should love you not hate you. Annoying users with ads until they cave and purchase premium is a slimy business tactic. I have more respect for telemarketers. I came back to use the app to see if anything changed and I can't even open the app. I have a top of the line phone that can run everything but your app. It's almost 2018 and you can't get your app to function on a modern phone. There has been 3 updates and nothing has been resolved. DISGUSTED!

Downloaded songs not really accessible. I like pandora but recently when I select shuffle my thumbs up it repeats the same several songs (songs I have given the thumbs up) along with new songs in the same vein. The new stuff is ok but why keep repeating the one or two songs over and over from my list of 302 songs. My other issue is I live in an area where reception comes and goes between my commute to and from work...so I downloaded quite a few songs. I wish I could select offline mode but I can’t. So I will be rocking out and when the song comes to an end I have sudden total silence while it connects “buffers” for the next 10 minutes. Instead of just going into off line mode and playing my downloads. So my question are they truly downloaded? Why else would the app keep searching “buffering”. If you live in a non rural area I am sure you don’t even notice but us Northern California coastal towns do! I end up switching to google play. As I want to rock out before I have a hectic day working at the local hospital or going home to take care of my three awesome teenagers and hubby!

No radio zone.. I put off moving from Fl to the backwoods of western North Carolina mostly because there was only talk radio and two country stations (I don’t like country at all) but as fait has it, I moved up here anyway in ‘07 & lived in misery until my first smart phone & finding the Pandora app in around ‘14 & found again what living was again. Than in mid 2017 I was working at a house in the middle of nowhere for weeks on end. I got no service out there & the free Pandora didn’t work out of coarse too. At this point I decided to brake down & get Pandora premium for off line playlist. I have had Pandora premium since that time and have never looked back. I love it, it is my personal radio station. Like I own my own station & can play whatever the hell I want. A few things pop up (can’t play due to licensing) but it’s rare enough & it usually doesn’t last long. Dollar for $ it is the best app I have for sure. I literally have it on 12 plus hours a day. From Hannibal Burris to Bradley’s Postmodern jukebox & 99.9% of anything in between.

Premium Subscriber for Years!!. Pandora, do you just not care anymore?? I used to be able to open your app and listen to whatever.. everything went sooo smoothly.. now I am lucky to get your app open and playing on the first try.. it constantly crashes, annoyingly pauses for notifications .. and will not play some selections and idk why but it keeps going back to the first episode of any podcasts I listen to.. it used to work just fine.. I could pick right up where I left off.. but not anymore.. now I have to wait and wait and wait for it to begin and then guess which episode I left off with.. and don’t switch programs too often because it just freezes up.. ya know I stayed with Pandora even when everybody else was jumping ship and for what?!? Everybody said get rid of Pandora and here I am paying for a Premium Service and receiving GARBAGE!! What makes me extremely angry is reading the reviews of all your other customers. We are all having the same issues and are fed up Pandora!! On top of everything else .. the audacity of you to make it impossible to talk to customer service in unbelievable!! I should be able to tell you what is actually wrong not have to pick from a list of choices and try to pick what is closest to the problem and hopefully getting it resolved.. I am done!!

Pandora Plus...has its flaws.. First of all, with Plus you’re supposed to have the ability to listen to a few offline stations. In theory, it’s supposed to switch to offline mode automatically when you lose cell service or internet access...rarely ever does this happen automatically. Also, of the 4 available offline stations, usually only 1 works. At least a third of the time it will say all stations are unavailable and will play nothing. My second complaint is something that annoys me so much, I’ve been looking into other music services. Even though I pay for ad free and already have Pandora Plus, ads for Pandora Plus pop up constantly! Initially premium ads were coming up, and that’s annoying enough, but then to keep pushing Plus on me when I ALREADY HAVE IT is just too much for me. UPDATE... 2 years later still having the same issue with the switching between offline and online modes. Always messing up or making me do it manually (which is a massive pain due to an update a while back.) makes it very difficult to access this option while driving. Also still says stations are “unavailable” when offline even though I’ve downloaded them. Ugh.

Life. I grew up on this music and like a lot of my friends and family did also. I can’t say anything else about this music but it’s like you got to have air and water and music is like the natural thing’s in life too make it too the next breath give me my Zeppelin and will be just fine. I learned how to make love listening to Led Zeppelin. I will not give you my age at time. I sure We where not the only one at that age learning the way of life on this story telling music. I could go on for ever and I will say this I’m now a old man and when I’m listening to Zep I feel like I did when I was a young boy experiencing life. I still feel the like I remain the same as did as a pup. This world without this beautiful music could not have been the same world with out it. Please make sure you have your last Album with best of wait I don’t need to give you all any advice on how to make your last album just do what it is you do and all will remain the same. Thanks from one of your #1 fans Barney

Organization. Hi. First if all, I would like to thank you for reading this request. Now I will get on with it. I really like Pandora, but I think that you should make it more organized. I think that the favorites should be on the top of all of the stations. I also think that to make it more attractive, the blue bar at the bottom of the screen should be either white, black, or non-existent. It’s just not attractive, and all of my friends and family agree. I’m sorry if you feel as if I am taking over your business, but that is just the way that the people want it. Only the album covers should be full with color. Everything else, I feel, should be black and white and grey. More modern = more attractive. Sorry, but it’s just what it is. My friends and I would also like if everytime we opened the app, music would not automatically start playing. I hope that you can find the time to make the changes in the next two weeks, or I will definitely be compelled to delete the app. I really do think that this app is a very good app and would like to give you props for making it. But the main point of this review is to tell you that the visual appearance of this app is just not attractive. Thank you for reading. Goodbye.

Premium is AWESOME!!. I’ve listened to pandora for years, pretty much since it started (I think). Just recently I decided to upgrade to the premium version and I have absolutely no regrets. It is well worth the monthly subscription rate. The love to listen to a variety of music, from old (Led Zeppelin) and other music from that era to music from the ‘90’s, 2000’s to today. I have a variety of stations setup that I have listened to; however, currently, for the past several weeks, I’ve been on the Goo-Goo Dolls station and not only am I hearing music from ‘90’s and 2000s that I recognize and absolutely loved back then but totally forgot about; but I’m also hearing “new” (old) music from these same bands that I really like as well. What I really like about pandora is that they provide the lyrics to the song, as well as a write-up about the band. Those are my two favorites things to do when I hear a new (or old) song that I love, especially when I have been singing the song wrong all these years thinking I know/knew what the lyrics were only to find out differently.

Pretty good but some issues. Hi I like this app(I’m not angry just slightly frustrated so please don’t take this like that)but there are some issues that I am having. I don’t know if anyone else is having them too, but I am and it’s annoying. About every other day-but it’s not consistent and recently it’s been happening more- I will play a song on the Pandora app, and it like glitches…but only if I listen to songs on my playlist. ~Just a note, I do not have Pandora Premium and I do not plan on getting it.~ It will say the song is playing, but it really isn’t because no sound comes out. And believe me, I have tried my volume all the way up, all the way down. My silent mode on, my silent mode off. Headphones, no headphones. Completely closing out of Pandora. Even deleting the app, getting it again and logging back in. And all of them combined and mixed together in all kinds of ways. It doesn’t do anything. And this “glitch” lasts anywhere from an hour to two days. Thank you for taking the time to consider my problems! Again, please don’t think I’m really angry, just a little frustrated. And I’m keeping Pandora, I just hope maybe the issue can be fixed. Thank you!!

Great, but some issues. I love pandora, but I don’t really like that a lot of songs and albums are only available for radio playback. I wish these tracks could just be played normally and you could add them to a playlist. I’m not sure if the artist chooses the album to only be available for radio, but it’s pretty irritating where you have 2 keep scrolling through a song mix to find the track that the mix is made from. If the radio only availability of some tracks can’t be fixed, I’d like it if the track that the mix is based on, for example, the whole album “Terre Thaemlitz - You? Again?” Is only available for radio playback, I wish that the song in that album could start off their radio stations, that a track from that album that has its own station could always start with that song that made up its station. It would also be cool if you were able to add a song that’s only available for radio playback into a playlist and you would be able to listen to it infinite amount of times. I just don’t really like the radio station only way of some tracks and albums. It would be cool if these tracks could be played endlessly and could be added to playlists and also start off their stations every time you come to that station. Also, seamless transitions or a cross fade option would be really nice too. It’s really annoying to hear gaps between songs on albums like The Wall by Pink Floyd that all cross fade into each track seamlessly.

Needs work. I was just listening to music, and I had explicit turned off and blocked, so music like that shouldn’t play, or they should at least have the swearing blocked. But I was just listening and one of the songs dropped the f bomb twice! This is unacceptable! I don’t swear and purposely turned that off! The app always stops playing at random times as well. I’ll hve turned it on, it will play two or three songs, but then it will suddenly stop playing, and there is nothing I can do but wait an hour or more before it plays anything, and then the exact same thing happens. It happens on my radio stations, and my playlists, and it’s really, really annoying. Overall, the app is great. There are most of the songs I want to listen to all there for when I want them, but there are still things that I wish I could change. I’m not sure if it’s just my device, or something going on with the app, but other than those two things I have no problem and would totally recommend pandora.

Sp0tify is so much better. I have been a Pandora guy for 10+ years up until this last week. I am just sick of Pandora constantly glitching or doing something that is beyond frustrating. Constantly blacking out songs randomly, songs only available for radio playback, app constantly glitches. For example, press play on a song and then lock phone and it says the song is playing but you don’t hear any music, unlock phone again open Pandora and have to press play again. This is so annoying and frustrating especially when driving. My last straw was when I realized you can’t even sort playlists by artist, song, or alphabetical. Also constantly get a glitch where it doesn’t let me add songs to playlists. I mean seriously? It’s 2022 and I’m paying $15 a month yet you give us the absolute bare minimum. I’m not sure why it took so long to switch but if you are considering it please do. Sp0tify is just so much more user friendly, way less glitching, seems to have a bigger library, they have scrolling lyrics for most songs, can sort playlist, and one of my favorites is their ability to recommend music. I have found 5 new bands that are so awesome because of Sp0tify that I would have never found on Pandora. Good riddance I hope everyone else switches too.

Amazing! And I have a lot of proof for it too!. I love this app! It’s great for listening to your favorite music! It doesn’t turn off in other apps, on your home screen, and when you turn your device off. I’ve used some other music apps and this one is by far my favorite, in fact I’m listening right now. However, they do send a lot of emails. I’m okay with them but if you don’t like them you can easily unsubscribe from the emails and still listen to the music. Also there are a ton of different kinds of music and whatever you like is probably there. They also personalize it to you and it’s great. If you don’t like their suggestions you can always search up something you would like to listen to and you’ll probably find it. I am constantly on there listening to music and thumbing up all of the songs. You can thumbs up or thumbs down songs depending on how you like them. You can listen to all of your radios together or you can listen to your favorite songs on the thumbprint radio.

An Unfortunate End.. I've used Pandora for almost a decade for my main source of music, and can remember discovering some of my favourite music here. However do to a recent and unfortunate experience, I will no longer be able to continue using them. This sudden change is do to the advertisements. Obviously pandora is free because of the add space they sell, and I'm generally understanding of this on any given day . Today however, was different. As I was waiting for the next song to play a rather unfortunate advertisement began to play, and it was incredibly disturbing to me. The advertisement was from a fringe political hate group that specifically fights for racial supremacy , a group that i consider the equivalent to a modern version of the Ku Klux Klan cult. Now I'm not usually one to get political, which is probably a reason why I'm so frustrated with this add, and in fact I avoid politics as much as possible, but this was over the line for me. I'm not going to get into who this group was exactly, as I don't believe they deserve any recognition, but unfortunately I will not be using this company again. People don't need political ideologies shoved down their throats, I just wanted to listen to some music man...

Only one issue. Pandora is a great app and pretty good for kids. As a kid myself, I don’t like seeing things that don’t interest me, or are not appropriate, so Pandora is a great option because you can turn off “Explicit Music” and you can add songs that are similar to your taste. I wish there was a more kid-friendly feature, or your parents could pick only specific podcasts or stations you could listen to, but no app is perfect lol. The “one issue” is that when I try to play a song sometimes, I see the bar that the music is on, (the bar that you can fast forward or rewind) but the place on the bar doesn’t move.”, and the music doesn’t play. So I have to delete the app and reinstall it, which isn’t a big deal, because it logs you right in when you install it again, but I have to do this several times a day so it gets annoying. And it’s not just my device either, because my little sister has the same problem. So that’s my only complaint. Other than that, the music is nice, and the app is high quality:)

Advertisements. Advertisements are too frequent. I should NOT have to pay to not have commercials. I can use other competing music apps that don’t have commercials like Pandora does. Also, just because I “like” a song when I’m listening to one genre of radio station, doesn’t mean I want to hear that song when I’m listening to a different genre of radio station. As humans, we are all in different moods at different times, and enjoy listening to different genres of music, depending on our mood. So if I am in the mood to be listening to a more upbeat and dance type genre, that doesn’t mean I want to hear my favorite slow love song from Secondhand Serenade. Please keep the same theme of music within the genre of radio station selected by the customer. If I want to listen to a random mix of songs I have periodically “liked” on Pandora, then I can listen to my thumbprint station. Otherwise, if I pick “Dance Party”, I want Dancing themed music, likewise, if I pick “Love Songs”, I want to hear slow romantic deep lyrical music.

Great Disappointment. I was really loving pandora. Playing music I knew and finding new music to love and then after a few weeks it started crashing. I followed the support directions: stop and close app, reopen: same error. Turn off device, turn back on: same error. Delete app, download app: same error. The support team the put a “trace” on my account supposedly. No error for 2 was. Then the error started back up, so I went back through the above steps, as advised by support who had a “trace” on my account. None of the fixes worked, and the “trace” apparently means nothing. Support then advised that I need to delete the app, and connect to my computer to sync my iTunes, then download the app...blah blah blah blah....Guess what? None of that crap worked either!!! Huge waste of time and effort! I fail to understand how iTunes is at fault, but pandora surely isn’t going to solve any problems, let alone take responsibility and fix their app. No no no...instead they are busy creating ridiculous processes that fix nothing, and useless updates. Great job pandora! Some may pay for the service, and perhaps that prevents the crashing, but there are other apps that provide much more, that are stable, and don’t play games through their support team.

Done with this app. This app seems to have a new unfixable bug where when I connect to my car (wired or Bluetoot) the skip doesn’t work. I press once on my wheel to skip, and pandora app skips 1-3 songs, effectively using all my free skips. Wrote to help desk telling them I tried resetting, reinstalling, updating the app, and restarting my phone. And what do they say? They completely ignore what I wrote and tell me to do exactly what I just said I did. It’s like they didn’t even read what I wrote. They literally advised me to do everything I said I did. Now, with all the overwhelming amount of ads, it’s impossible to navigate the app without accidentally clicking into the upgrade button. And I accidentally bought the upgrade because the ads are so well timed. It shows one ad and you go to hit close ad or whatever it is, and immediately the pandora upgrade ad appears with the purchase button in exactly the place as the close ad button so you hit the purchase botton. I apparently hit tbat thinking I hit the close ad button and then I went to open my phone with my finger print not realizing it and bought the premium. Immediately cancels my subscription but the damage was done. I will be deleting this app after the month is over. Really disgusting how you trick your customers.

It could be better. I have the premium subscription and overall I’m pleased with the easy to use platform, music selection and the quality of sound. However I do agree with other users that I wish Pandora would give users (especially those that pay for premium) the ability to edit/sort your stations and playlists on your home page. Yes you can filter for your stations or downloaded playlists but I’m pretty particular and I like things to be alphabetical... or the order in which my brain thinks is most logical. But the thing that bothers me THE MOST is the fact that when you pause a song, and lock your phone and walk away for a moment or pause to have a conversation with a coworker and you go back to the app, it acts like you just opened the app and the song you were listening to you, at your favorite part, starts over. What’s with that?! I understand that music apps may be different but the free game apps I have don’t wipe out my progress if I pause the game and “minimize” the app.... why can’t the app I pay monthly for do the same?!?

Pandora. I like the app and all, but my mother WILL NOT LET ME LISTEN TO SONGS WITH WORDS! What is up with that?! I did find a way to listen to some music that had words on the radio that was not supposed to have music with words. So, I have been able to manage it until now. Last night I went to go to the drive in. When both movies were done I was gonna listen to my music. My mother offered to turn on my music, but I said no and tried to grab it from her. THEN she checked my iPad and changed my music to A RADIO STATION SO SO SO STUPID THAT I COULD EVEN LISTEN TO IT! Can you guess what radio station is was? SPA RADIO! I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE IT! *sure do wish I could listen to music WITH WORDS instead of a stupid stupid STUPID spa radio that I CAN’T EVEN LISTEN TO!!!!* Case Closed! Now, GOOD BYE! I truly do wish that when people update the app, the update will delete the stations that don’t have words. I still do love Pandora, but my mother ALWAYS HAS TO BE THE ONE TO GO AND MESS UP MY EXPERIENCE! I still do love her VERY VERY MUCH!❤️

Rather lacking.... I do love Pandora, and I use this app all the time, but certain features never work on my phone; for example, the friend search, and Facebook linking. I tried those on my husband’s Samsung phone, and they work, but not on my iPhone for some reason. Deleting and reinstalling doesn’t help. I also think it’s rather lacking in features. There are some things that I would love to see in this app, and this is just my opinion of course, but I think Pandora should expand the social aspect of their service. The current friend feature is kind of pointless. I always thought it would be cool to be able to have more interactive features with friends’ profiles, like commenting, sharing, liking, etc. Having the option to display what you’re listening to at the moment, either publicly or just with friends, would be nice; I know there used to be a similar feature but it’s gone now, and it only showed the last station listened to, not real-time listening. (Of course this should be optional. Everything should be optional.) Another thing I would like to see would be some kind of listening statistics, more than just the vague ranking of what you’ve been listening to most recently.

Best thing. Ive had Pandora for YEARS. I finally upgraded to a paid account instead of free. I wish i had done this years ago. I have always loved pandora and have found so many of my favorite bands through Pandora. Now i used Pandora as a “therapy” or “medication”. Im a combat vet with serious PTSD and until very recently have been able to go without any pills due mostly to Pandora. I know that sounds silly but I legitimately medicate with music (specifically Pandora). I use special stations ive set up when i paint as well for inspiration and to keep the right mood or frame of mind or energy for the style im working on that night. Pandora has been and is currently a godsend for me and theres a decent chance I wouldn’t be here without it. Im a lifetime customer and incredibly appreciative of all the free years i accessed it as well. I hope someone up top reads this review because i want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you have no idea you’ve done in my life. Tearing up as I write this lol...THANK YOU.

Pandora Premium may not be so great after all. My headphone controls are not working with Pandora anymore over the last few days and Pandora no longer comes up on my lock screen. This is absolutely irritating. Who do I need to complain to in order to get this fixed?! Pandora is great. I always thought so. And I figured, it would be fantastic to upgrade to Pandora Premium (PP). I don't regret my decision, but it (PP) concentrates on playing thumbs up songs. Now that might sound great, but it 1) disallows the listener from gaining new music experiences from different artists, genres, and albums. 2) soon enough, I will grow tired of these favorite tracks. 3) you cannot undo a thumbs up after it is done. So if you thumbs up a song, you can neither unhighlight thumbs up nor hit "thumbs down" (although that may be extreme). What I want from Pandora Premium- and was available in the free version - is the flexibility of liking, unliking, disliking song tracks, and exploring new artists, genres, albums, and tracks. Still Pandora is great and receives 4 stars, but Pandora Premium, itself, is probably worth 2. It's not bad... just disappointing.

Love, Music and Pandora. For people who truly love music Pandora is a godsend. There is a joy that That comes from a good surprise. With Pandora you don’t have to set up a playlist, so you’re never sure what song my play next. Pandora uses a song or band that you chose to start your station. They play music that is similar to your original chose. Pandora then uses algorithms that track your likes and dislikes of the songs that you have listened to in order to create a custom playlist for every user. I pay for the service that removes the ads and allows me to skip any songs or repeat any songs that I want.I have had Pandora for years and enjoy it so much that I stopped to write this small review. If you love music I think that you will also love Pandora. I hope that you give it a try. Music brings so much happiness to life, and with Pandora your music can always be with you. I don’t have to download hundreds of songs I can just listen to my music every were I go. I love music. I love Pandora.

Love the music, but please target your ads better.. I listen to the free version of Pandora very frequently, and am so grateful for the resource. I’m a stay-at-home mom to four little kids. They also love listening to Pandora. I have only one problem: sometimes the ads aren’t quite targeted at the right audience. Currently, I have been bombarded with the terrible ad for the paid version of Pandora which has sexy music and is describing how excited someone is in the moments leading up to a first kiss, interrupted by a commercial for hemorrhoid cream. This ad is neither appropriate for my children, nor entertaining to me. I understand that Pandora’s marketers are doing a great job by making me wish I could just pay to make the ad go away, but I do not appreciate the sense that I am being forced, rather than invited, to either pay or stop listening. Please stop using the suggestion of sultry kissing, of sex, and of hemorrhoids for humor or shock (which falls in the category of “potty talk” in this house) in your ads on non-explicit stations. It is off-putting and inappropriate for general audiences. Previous instances of inappropriate ads included ads featuring loud club music breaking in to the classical music we had on as a background to art time with the kids. No thanks.

Nothing compared to Apple Music. There are a lot of adds on Pandora and after paying the smaller subscription (something like $5 a month), I found that I was still limited in what I could do. I was not able to make or edit playlists nearly as well as Apple Music if at all (I never figured it out), the amount of likes and dislikes was also limited. There came several times when I noticed an apparent glitch in the system as well. There was a type of song that continued to play on a certain violin station (Daniel D) that sounded almost like a metronome. I pushed dislike. But then, as if I actually pushed “like”, it played another similar song. Before I knew it, I was listening to nothing but that type of music and patiently disliking every last one. Then I ran out of dislikes. I have noticed that a lot of stations are seemingly preset mostly by popular trends. My likes and dislikes don’t have as strong an influence as they should. Basses on these disappointments, I decided to find somewhere else to get my music. I got Apple Music unlimited for $4.99 on school discount. I have unlimited access to anything - unlimited skips, easily editing of playlists, unlimited likes and dislikes, recommended albums to add to playlists, I can skip to the middle of any song. Pandora served its purpose, but Apple Music, while compared side by side with pandora, is much better.

Needs some technical improvement. I would say this app is okay for a free music streaming app but there are technical issues that need improvement. First, the ads play during songs. A new song—usually a good one I would like to listen to—will begin playing the same time as an ad and when the ad is over the song will kind of skip a beat then continue playing. When this happens, the screen stays on the ad break screen for a while so I can’t skip the song until maybe half way through. Additionally, I turned on the Siri function and use the correct command phrase but Siri will say, “ok playing ____ station on pandora” then stop and say “sorry, you’ll need to continue with pandora” and I have to pick my phone up, unlock it, go to the pandora app and click that stupid “continue” button. With everything so accessible and hands free via Siri and Alexa, this seems unnecessary and should be done away with. As far as music, I usually listen to 2 particular stations: Tammy Rivera radio because Apple Music doesn’t have a station based for her and also R&B music station because I generally like the songs Pandora plays over Apple Music’s version of this station. Overall good music but technical improvement needed.

Love you, but there’s one problem. I've been using Pandora for years and I love it. Yeah, they have some bugs, but a lot of apps do. Some of my now favorite bands I found from pandora. I pay $5/month for the premium version and it’s really worth it. My only complaint, which is more of a suggestion or request, I wish I could choose which stations I had offline. I have stations that I’ve listened to so freaking much, that’s how the app decides which stations are available offline, but I don’t want those for offline use. The fact that the more you listen to offline ones, the more hours you accumulate, solidifying their spots on the list. I frequently find myself with little to no data connection, so I really appreciate and rely on the offline mode. I tried deleting those stations and re-loading my offline stations, but alas it did not fix the problem... it honestly just made it worse. I deleted all of my stations that hadn’t been listened to this year and I’m realizing that to get the stations I want offline, I’ll have to delete all of them but the ones I want. So if you could choose the stations to download, that’d be dope and then I’d definitely give you a well-deserved 5 stars 😬

Treasure trove. Pandora has been a huge contributor to my electronic music collection. Since I’m pushing age 60, it’s very difficult to me to be a participant in the leading edge of any technology. When I was new to Apple Music,I created a Pandora channel for my favorite musician, Elvis Costello. The song is that played and the artists chosen what a great reminders of my younger days and college days, andWhen a new artist I would show up, like madness or the specials, I could quickly switch to Apple Music and download a playlist of the essentials for that artist, which very quickly helped build my electronic music collection, As well as build other electronic or organicPlaylists on my phone. At this year’s New Year’s party, My “New Year’s funky eve“ playlist killed for three straight hours until the ball dropped. It’s a great way to expand your musical knowledge and collectA whole lot of songs you like. I find myself playing a recently downloaded album each night to put myself to sleep. I do not recommend anyone use the clashes combat rock

I love this app, but it could use some changes. Hi, I am Alia I am 10 years old and I use this app a lot to help me with my homework to get my brain working a little bit because sometimes I’m tired. Every time when I’m using Pandora most of the time I get an ad and I didn’t even watch the ad to get more skips so I think you should lower down the ads just a little bit I’m not saying you have to take them off fully but I’m just saying like to cut them off just a little bit because I’m getting like a ad every time when a new song comes or when I skip a song. Next thing I want to talk about is the skips. I think we should have more than six skips because there’s a lot of songs on my playlist like on my albums that I don’t really know so then I skip them but then it tells me I need more skips so I think we should get like two more extra skips and I think I’ll be good but other than that this app is amazing. I love their music. And it is just a great app. Please reach out to me as soon as possible and thank you for reading. Bye.

Has something changed with the Pandora app???. Ive had Pandora for several years now, it is the free version. I have not been able to listen to my Pandora for over a week now. When I click into one of my stations, it doesn’t play. I can’t even click play, rewind, or fast forward. The icons are there but not highlighted. I have logged in and out. I’ve turned on/off my phone and I’ve even deleted and reinstalled the app. I’ve done this multiple times and still nothing. When I exit out of the station to browse for other options, it says buffering...your station will be right back. I logged out of my account and had my son log into his account on my phone and his account works on my phone. I contacted the help support explaining all of this, and they sent me the troubleshooting information from their website after I explained I’ve already done all of the troubleshooting. The email they sent me said, if I was still having trouble, to respond to their email, which I did , and I still have not heard anything back. Horrible, horrible customer support.

App needs so much work. The service itself is great. All of my complaints are with the app and not Pandora itself. 1. App seems to get shut down in the background after only a few minutes if it’s not playing music. Even if you’re not doing anything else with your phone. So when you open it back up, everything needs to reload and whatever song you were listening to is gone. 2. CarPlay issues. OMG, where to begin? CarPlay with Pandora is a disaster. Keeps going from Now Playing back to the Stations screen. Stations don’t load (blank screen) sometimes, forcing you to use your phone to get started. If you change stations or skip songs, sometimes the Now Playing screen will still show the previous song for a good 10 seconds or more, during which time onscreen controls like Pause will not work. 3. Offline songs are noticeably louder than if they’re streamed. Offline mode also seems hesitant to switch back online despite a strong and solid network connection. 4. Ever since Offline mode was introduced, the streaming cache has been severely reduced. It used to cache 3-4 songs. Now it doesn’t seem to cache the next song until the current one is half way done. If you’re in a spotty area and you skip the current song, you’re out of luck. I would happily trade Offline mode to get back a bigger streaming cache.

Is this just me?. I’ve had pandora for about 6 years installed on my phone. I love the short sessions you can have for free by just watching an ad (which I only discovered 3 years ago fsr) and they usually last about 30 minutes. But there have been some glitches I have been encountering. So let’s say I pick a song and start a session, then I realize that I have to do something else so I pause a song. About 1-2 hours later when I come back it would be done, which is *supposed to happen* but it doesn’t. So I turn a song on thinking it’s not a big deal, and the song won’t play. None of the songs will! I turn on the radio stations though and it works fine (though a bit slower). Oh, but when I try to replay a song on that station, which usually works, isn’t, so I have to be more careful as not to make a mistake of skipping anything. But sometimes, or sorry, ehem, MOST of the time, it will be hours later AND it still won’t END. Like please, I just want this glitchy session to end so I can start another one so I can actually listen to the songs in my playlists! The only solution to the problem for me is to sin out of my account, and then re-log in. It’s so much work though to go all the way to the settings, sign out, wait like 5 minutes (yes it takes a very long time) and then finally log back in, and then think of a song to search up in the search bar. Like, this isn’t supposed to happen. It’s so repetitive. Please fix this.

Not a good algorhythm. The problems I have with Pandora are that I type in a group or a song name I want to hear and maybe I’ll hear one song by that group and then many, many songs by all types of other bands, many of which I give a “thumbs down” but they still cycle around. Sometimes I’ll dislike a group and then Pandora will send 2 or 3 more songs by that group, when I HATE that group, but no songs of the group I want to hear. Another point is that when you give a “thumbs up” to various songs, Pandora will just repeat those songs first, when turning on that station, and no other songs by the group you WANTED to hear. Like that group made no other songs, ever! But It’ll give you 3 songs in a row by some group you hate. Also, Pandora will, after cycling through the liked songs, play an endless list of songs you never heard of and don’t like and not a single song you want again. Don’t even get me started on a finite number of skips. Yes, I use the free version of Pandora, but truthfully why am I going to pay to hear tons of other crap? Sometimes the music you disliked bleeds over to other unrelated stations. Why would I pay?! I will not give you my money, Pandora.

Can’t get it right AGAIN!!!. Once’s again you mess up the app. Now I can’t get it to work. When I turn it on the app then when I closed the screen to let it play in back ground. It turns off the music. Then when I try to put it back on it freezes. I have to turn off the app then turn it back on. This happens every time. Now that I paid for this service it not working. This happen 1 day after the last fix. Plus you can’t see whats playing in the lock screen. Just shows the pandora app is on. GREAT JOBS!!! (Not) (Next day) After I putting a bad review. The sent me a way to fix the problem the very next day. All I can say it now work and I’m happy again with pandora. This time it was a great job!! Just give them a problem and they will fix it. I might have been a little mad about the review. But at the time it was bad day and I wanted was to listen to music it chill with, and it didn’t want to work. I glad that the people at pandora really care about the people who uses their app. Just give a change and see what they can do for you. *****. 5 five rating.

Amazing, but could change a bit.. I love the app, it has a lot of music I could play. But some Times it just turns off when listening to music. also some of the songs on the radio can only be played on that station or that radio specifically. I wish it can be where we can like this song on the playlist and it not say we’re not able to play it because it’s only on radio but have it where were able to play it infinite amount of time. Also sometimes when you go to play your music it will not play at all, it will just have the screen on the station or radio you want to listen to and it will have a song but it will not either play or just say it’s buffering (loading). other than that this app is an amazing app and you should really get it. It also has a thing where you pay so much amount of money, It’s not a lot but I forgot how much it is, we were able to listen to whatever music we want at that moment at that time. So basically if I don’t wanna listen to one song and it won’t let it play it on the radio I can go over type in the song and search it up and play it.

Political Adds....why needed on Pandora?. I really like Pandora. I would give you a 5 Star but I cannot at this time. I like getting PRODUCTS that are FOR SALE advertisement as I like to hear/see/buy what’s new. However I listen to Pandora because I want an escape from Politics and negativity! There is not an option to opt out or report as not appropriate for Political adds? Why do you (Pandora )force this? You allow opt outs for other things as I understand. Will you please update and allow for option of NOT hear political crap or not even accept political ads! They are not selling anything other than giving out negativity for free. This only creates a negative and toxic environment in my personal space that has Pandora playing your favorite music in the background! Pandora losses front stage when this happens. I want a positive and relaxing environment with my favorite music playing in the background and buying/looking/ listening to Product advertisers selling products to make a living for those that need a job to put food on their table for their families!!!

Love this app so much I can’t explain it!. I love listening to music, it is like a passion of mine. It is like a gift to me. I really like apps that I don’t have to pay for, and this one I don’t have too. The music is great sound quality on my phone without a speaker. It sounds even better with a speaker! The free version is super good! All you have to do to listen to ANY music is watch a 15 second ad which I don’t mind at all. I also like that you can play a specific song on the app. With many other apps that have a free version you can’t listen to a specific song it will just bring you to a station with songs like that song. With Pandora you can look up a song and play that song. You don’t have to go to a station like that song. I also like that I can make my own playlists. I have about ten current playlists which is amazing! I also like that they have the lyrics to the song. There are a few features missing. I wish that the lyrics would play by itself and not me having to scroll to get the lyrics. There are a couple other things that could be improved but no many! I bet the payed version is even better! Love this app so much!

Pandora Keeps improving.. I’ve been with Pandora since the beginning. Yep. Since the beginning. Whoever they have working on the algorithm, they are doing a more than decent job. Sure you create your own “stations” but when you hit shuffle the selection and size of their catalog that comes on really shows how fine tuned they are getting to one’s taste. I don’t get that experience with other apps (no matter how much I’ve paid) I pick out obscure bands and pandora has so far delivered. I’m talking bands from record labels that don’t even exist anymore. There is always room for improvement but at this moment I’m enjoying pandora more than ever… With Other music apps I feel like I’m in a self imposed box and the experience with these other music apps has been less than smooth in comparison. It feels like Pandora does equal work in helping each individual curate their experience. I’m glad Pandora stuck with being a (RADIO) experience. If you know, you know.

Thumbprint Overrides Selection. When I choose an Artist to listen to, I expect the majority of the music for that channel to be the Artist I selected, not just a few. It seems the more thumbprints your choose, the less of the actual artist you want to listen to actually get played. Recently is seems to be maybe 10-15% of the actual artist/musicians channel that is chosen actually gets their music. The only way I can see to fix the issue is to “Un-THUMBPRINT” the individual channels other artist/musician thumbprints to be able to listen to that channels music. The thumbprints should only be used as a guide for using the thumbprint channel itself, or to fill in an occasional selection. There should be no more than 25% of the thumbprint selections on an an individual / group artist / musicians channel except for thumbprint or various selection channels. Perhaps if people prefer thumbprints over the actual artist /musician selected, a setup panel for individuals to choose how much thumbprint they want to listen to Vs actual artist / musician channel would be appropriate. Very frustrated as a main source of listening and won’t subscribe because they (PANDORA) feels they know better about what I want to listen to than I do.

Unfair! I’m outraged!!. I am taking my business elsewhere. They don’t have a number you can call if you have a quick question and they drag to respond. I sighed up for the premium family plan and I was actually kinda excited about it. I had it for 3 months and had my sister and parents on it. Just two days ago they didn’t take the money and pandora asked me if I wanted to subscribe to one of their plans. I thought there must have been a problem with the card I have since it’s been acting up. I went to where you sign up to the pandora family plan and it asked for my log in information. I logged in and it said “Unable to subscribe to Pandora Premium Family You must be 21 years or older to start a Pandora Premium Family plan. To join, have someone else in your family who is 21 years or older start a Pandora Premium Family plan, then they can add you to the plan as a family member. Alternatively, see other subscription plans” I am outraged and feel this is unjust if that was their policy in the first place why didn’t they just deny it in the first place. I don’t want anything for free I have been paying and before that I had the regular premium. All I want is to be able to enjoy the family premium plan once again.

Discovery. Pandora has always been really good for me as far as discovery goes. The one thing stopping me from going to the paid version is that the app works poorly with my iPhone. You skip a song, it plays an ad, it rebuffers, then it freezes and you have to close it and reopen it. It then plays the same song you just skipped causing you to use another skip on the same song. Maybe that’s just the ad version but it’s making me question if the regular version will be any better as far as loading and freezing. My iPhone also just doesn’t recognize the app as being open sometimes and when music is playing, the Lock Screen will show nothing so I can’t skip or pause or anything and my car or whatever Bluetooth device I have connected will not have any control over the music. If I’m driving or working on anything, I would have to put everything down to close and reopen the app again and possibly be stuck in the same situation. Other than that, I don’t know if it’s due to what I have chosen recently but I will have songs that I have liked and I will not hear it for months even without clicking “I’m tired of this song” but I’ll come across a song that plays 2-3 times in a few hours or even the next day, it’ll still come on instead of others

I want an improved music service. This is Pandora’s last week to prove that it’s the music service for me. I drive a lot between major cities and service drops all the time. Even when i have good service the app locks up and makes me reboot. Lastly, it’s not clear what or how im paying for plus. I guit once because of the ridiculous monthly tap when all i wanted to do was pay for a year and forget about the hassle of remembering to deduct monthly payments. Now, i cant see (on the app) how I’m paying, again. Ill logon to the website and find out if I’ll just quit then and there. Apple music had been sending little treats and Pandora hasn’t been concerned enough to make the app work through my iphone ( so far) and without a pretty rapid service improvement ( i just updated the app) and a means to see how I’m paying for plus from my very secure phone, i will quit and move on. I have to add one more, i was engaged many years ago by a stellar customer service representative. She was so helpful that i nearly stayed on, in spite of the required monthly payments option at the time. When Pandora finally adopted the annual payment option again, I don’t return. But now service is suffering. Please make this right. Thank you very much for reading my novella! 😁

Great app but.... This is an excellent app. I absolutely love it and I use it all the time. It allows free music, music curated for you, and make your own playlists. The reason, though, that I gave it three stars is because of ads. I get it. If I skip the songs like ten times, yeah I should get an ad. But sometimes the ads are quite long. And, on top of that, after the ad ends I only get two skips. Also, it randomly plays ads in the middle of songs. I will be listening to something then all of a sudden I will hear “We have great deals at target”. Usually these ads will last about thirty seconds and then when the ad is over, it skips the song you were listening to. One more complaint. If you make a playlist with 10+ songs, you will not be able to listen to all of them in one sitting. After listening to about 5-7 songs on your playlist, it will cut and send you to a random station. It’s annoying because sometimes I just wanna listen to MY songs. The ones that I picked out. This really gets on my nerves because when I’m in my feels, and I’m listening to my “sad song” playlist, it will cut randomly to a pop hits or a hip hop station. Once again. Super frustrating. I basically stopped making/listening to my playlist because I can only listen to a few songs in one sitting. Please fix these minor problems, but other than that...great app.

Omg so annoying. Top 10 reason you need to fix pandora. (1) you need to not have just 3 or 4 skips to the music. (2) Listen closely, my music will not work half of the time and pandora will not let me play any music unless I reboot my phone and delete pandora and get it again. (3) IF I WAS YOU SAY THESE ABOUT A 100 MORE TIMES!😡Ok no.(4) Fix the glitches you Know why I saw a little girl on the phone apparently and the when I got off of pandora I could not move the screen. (5) if you can let the radio know this I will be praying you will. Channel Star 94.9 to tell them this STOP PLAYING Mitt Romney Come put you records on. Stupidest song I ever heard. Ok (6) Sorry about no. (4)-(5) but please do them. (7) Pandora can you please fix this. When I type a song that I like but I like it better in orchestra it will go to a song called orchestra. Why!😭(8) use less adds. (9) I used to love pandora but now all it does is not work I don’t know if it’s my phone or not but if it is pandora fix it . (10) please repeat steps (1)-(10) a enough were you can say it like a bible verse. Please and Thank you

Why I love Pandora.. Omg, Pandora is simply the BEST!! It’s a place where you can find all of you favorite songs for free! I LOVE MUSIC! And if you love music as much as I do, then your going to LOVE Pandora. I love it so much that I listen to it in bed! 😂 But... the only thing I wish was different about Pandora, is that I really wish there were more songs that have a clean version. Sometimes, when I start listening to a song, I search for a clean version of it just in case. Let’s say I wanted to listen to “On My Way” By Alan Walker & Sabrina Carpenter, then I would normally search for a clean version of that song. But sometimes, I click the normal version of it because I would think it didn’t have bad words in it due to the fact that it didn’t have a clean version. But then... I get startled by the cuss words. And then, just because of that, I tend to dislike the song. So whenever I hear that song on a different station, I will most likely 👎🏼 the song. I love you Pandora, but please please work on those clean versions!! I really enjoy your music, I can’t wait to see what you do next! To: Pandora From: Me ❤️

Terrible app!. I really like Pandora, so I decided to get the premium version. 1. Unfortunately, one of my biggest issues is that the songs stop playing randomly unless I stay in the app with my phone on the whole time. This can get really annoying when you have to keep going back into the app to resume the song. 2. When I put the app in offline mode there are still lots of problems. I’ll be listening to my music while I’m doing something like hw and then it will start playing two songs at once. I can only pause one song and the other one just keeps playing. So, I have to go back in to close the app and wait a few minutes to reopen it and restart my playlist. 3. When I want to add new songs to a playlist i go to turn off offline mode, but then everything freezes! I can’t scroll, edit, or turn offline mode back on. I know that all of these have little fixes but it is such a pain to stop what you’re doing to fix these. Listening to music is supposed to be enjoyable and this just ruins it. I suggest to anyone wanting to get premium not too. I’d take the ads over this any day.

Why update?. I hesitated to update but instead went against myself and did anyway, now my pandora won't start at all. Can u fix this bcuz I use this app in my car every single day. This never happened before and my phone and other apps on my phone work fine except pandora. I will never update again once I get it back up unless I'm forced to. Also how are we supposed to trust paying for the premium version if the app isn't promised to work when u update it. I wouldn't dare risk my coins on something that won't even work half the time. I haven’t updated my pandora app since Aug of 2017, I been fed up with the broken fixes and the issues are never resolved. I see people on here complaining not having the pandora icon on their Apple Watch anymore, well luckily I do since I have yet to update. I feel bad for the ones who lost that feature on their watch. What’s the point of updates if it’s not an update but a broken fix.

What happened. I used to love Pandora because it was free music that played all my favorite music and had a wide variety of music from movie soundtracks to music you hear everyday on the radio. But this past year or so Pandora hasn’t been the best. For one it used to have a problem where it would just shut off for no reason at all but that problem seemed to get fix. But now there’s a problem with loading the music, sometimes radio stations won’t load and you’ll either have to play with a couple of other stations and then go back to that one. I understand the concept of liking songs and hearing similar songs like that one you liked but they continuously play the same liked songs all the time. I realized that you’re better off not liking or disliking a song if you want to hear different music. The last thing is the ads. I know that’s how you make your money and a lot of us can’t afford to pay for premium but it’s annoying when you can only listen to 2 songs before an ad pops up. I wish y’all would fix some of these problems

Pandora Keeps improving.. I’ve been with Pandora since the beginning. Yep. Since the beginning. Whoever they have working on the algorithm, they are doing a more than decent job. Sure you create your own “stations” but when you hit shuffle the selection and size of their catalog that comes on really shows how fine tuned they are getting to one’s taste.

It feels like Pandora does equal work in helping each individual curate their experience. I’m glad Pandora stuck with being a (RADIO) experience. If you know, you know.

My go to! But..... I’ve had Pandora for a very long time and i enjoy how it knows me so well after a decade of listening. There are a few things i would add, such as a driving mode where touch controls are bigger and more pronounced. The upgrade pop up is freakin annoying, but you gotta do what you gotta do, i do suggest maybe a delay when it pops up, because it appears as soon as you wake up your phone and ive hit that banner a million and one times so far when i try to change a station or song. As for the biggest issue right now is pandora when apple maps is open. It completely messes up voice turn by turn and you only get audio prompts which defeats the purpose of eyes on the road. No matter what settings i change in Pandora or maps, no voice turn by turn possible when playing a song. This doesn't happen with any other music app...just saying. Overall great music service and ill update the review as soon as these issue get fixed....running on iPhoneSE....i need to upgrade, i know, but youuu have the money? Exactly, so shut up. Lol jk Love you 😍

The Best Playlists. I’ve been using Pandora since 2003 or 2004 and it has introduced me to so many new artists that I have proudly shared with friends through the years. The patchwork of music that Pandora plays is still, I think, unparalleled when comparing the other big music streaming services. Being able to share new music with a friend and hear them say “This is awesome, I haven’t heard this before!” is all thanks to Pandora and has fed that hipster pride that many who enjoy music feel when they’ve “heard something that you’ve probably never heard of”. If I’m being honest I got to hear it only because Pandora heard it first and added it to whatever station I was listening to—Thank you Pandora for bringing so much great music to myself and those close to me AND allowing me to help cultivate stations throughout the years by giving a thumbs up, thumbs down, and to add variety to a station. PS: Reading the Artist bio’s when you get the chance can be really interesting!

Lots of bugs - can’t play songs and frequently offline. My Pandora experience has been getting worse and worse - I’ve been struggling to play songs bc it often freezes on any given song and I can’t play or pause or forward to the next song. (Its frozen right now I’m fact) I have the kill the app and try again. The app also frequently takes me offline when I have good connectivity. I’ve also had a problem where my Pandora will start to randomly play in my pocket. When I go to shut it off I try to pause it from the lock screen of my iPhone, which doesn’t work. I then have to authenticate to get into my phone and navigate to the Pandora app to stop the music. Only the pause button in the Pandora app doesn’t work either (meanwhile the music is still playing loudly). Now I need to kill the app which takes several seconds on the iPhone X. Very poor experience overall. The app doesn’t function properly for what it’s designed for and the random playing in my pocket (when my screen is locked btw with a password) is even more horrible, especially when I’m at work and I can’t turn it off!!! Fix these issues please.

Just let us listen!. This has been my favorite music radio station for over 15 years. I enjoyed it so much initially that I introduced my entire family to it. We all have subscriptions. But the incessant “someone else is listening” messages are about to end what up until now has been a completely harmonious relationship. Yesterday, I was listening in my living room on Apple TV, then left the room to take a bath without pausing. I thought I’d listen to my music on my bathroom Bose player while I got dressed. The “someone else is listening” message popped and my music stopped. (Remember, it was me listening, just from another room.) I stepped out of the bathtub and selected the “Let me listen” option. My music continued in the bathroom. But only until THAT SONG ended. Then the music stopped again and the message popped up. Again. I got out of the shower and chose “Let me listen”. Again. And again. Until I just gave it up. This happens all the time and it is ridiculous Pandora! What has been for me up until now a five star music experience has been all but destroyed by your paranoia that someone else might be listening to my premium account besides me. They’re not. And if I want to listen to MY account on every device in my home as I move from room to room, I should be able to listen. IT’S MY ACCOUNT. I’M PAYING FOR IT!!! Get this sorted out Pandora or you are going to lose your most loyal customers. We’ve loved you!

Great Songs! 😊. I love Pandora! But one problem I have, so I like to listen to music with my headphones(because my parents don't want to hear music cuz there working) and evertime I leave my headphones connected to my phone for a while, when I try to listen to music again then I can't even listen to ANYTHING, then I end up deleting the app and re downloading it. It's ANNOYING! Tho I have to leave for school and leave my headphones on so it's not my fault that I leave it on. But all the songs are pretty good,I listen all the time, (I'm listening right now) but sometimes when I play my playlist then when another song is supposed to come up then it just puts a random song I don't know. So just those two problems✌,but that's all pls fix headphone problem, the other on is fine but if you could pls fix if not that's fine, just the headphones. Thank you for listening! Love the app tho! -Julia

Needs an update for modern devices. Pandora needs an update for a stand alone app compatible with the Apple Watch Series 3 Cellular. If I lose Bluetooth connection with my actual phone pandora will not work because it uses the app on my phone although I have the add on installed my watch. The point of having cellular on the Apple Watch is if you are out of range on Bluetooth with your phone you can still text, call, email etc from the watch. Would be nice to enjoy my pandora premium out on a walk with the dog without my phone and using my AirPods or out for a jog. iTunes does support a stand alone app for the watch so you can listen to music through AirPods without connection to your phone. Another benefit I would get here would be the usage of battery using pandora on my watch vs phone. I get home from a long day of work and my watch is at 80% and my phone is at 20% and that is off and on wireless charging all day. One of my coworkers opted for the iTunes unlimited subscription and I’m getting jealous for sure...

I love the app, but some issues. I’ve been using Pandora for the longest time, it has always been number 1 music app. I have pandora premium and it’s great, I can download any songs, no ads and much more however I can’t seem to ignore the issues that appear at times. More recently, there have been big groups of songs that just disappear from my collected music, and it’s annoying when I want to listen to a song and all of the sudden it’s not there. There’s also been an issue with my downloads, songs that I’ve had downloaded for the longest time are all of the sudden gone and now I have to download them again. This has happened in the past and I simply ignored them or they solved themselves when I closed and opened the app again, or by updating the app. However, this time I decided to write on here because I can’t simply ignore it as more of my recent songs in my collection have been removed. I wish these things wouldn’t happen but I still love the app overall.

Hi … some changes u need to do. OK see here fact is lots of people and I have been annoyed about the ads so could you at least make the skips more like 6 or 7 not like three or four because it doesn’t seem fair every like skip skip skip because you don’t like this song or there’s a problem with this song or something and you only get three or four skips which it doesn’t seem fair maybe for other people it’s like whatever but most people it’s kind of annoying because you always keep hearing the same ad every few seconds like haven’t you heard ratings and reports about the ads and all that stuff? Yeah I bet you did this app is really good but I would say that has to change and… for the other rates I don’t know I have read some of them and others I just didn’t read because I don’t have much time but I hope you understand and yes I do come back to my rate and change it if something is wrong so I hope you have a really really really really nice day and that’s most likely it Bye have a nice day and ty for reading this!!!

App will not install on WatchOS 6.2. After updating my iPhone to iOS 13.4 and Apple Watch to watchOS 6.2 I went for a run and noticed I could no longer stream live stations, I could only play downloaded stations. Uninstalled and attempted to reinstall, but the app will no longer install to my watch. I managed to install pandora from the store on the watch, but streaming via lte and WiFi is broken, app closes when selecting a station, only able to listen to downloaded stations. Update 9 Apr 20: Updated iPhone 11 Pro to 13.4.1 and Apple Watch 5 LTE to 6.2.1. Watch was exhibiting same symptoms, when not connected to phone, can only play downloaded stations and playlists and forces closed when trying to play stations. Update 11 Apr 20: Had headphones connected to iPhone to allow streaming station and left proximity of iPhone to go for a run. When the music stopped I attempted to connect my head phones to my watch and play downloaded station, headphones connected successfully, but nothing would play, not downloads or streaming stations. Performed a hard restart on the Apple Watch ( holding crown and button ), when the watch rebooted, headphones connected successfully and I was able to play streaming stations and downloaded stations and playlists. I have used my headphones and watch without phone and using streaming stations 3 times since with no hiccups.

It’s Awesome, And I Recommend It. I had this song stuck in my head from my favorite musician, and when I put pandora on the song I had in my head came on. I mean sure, that was a little creepy but still cool at the same time. I mean, I didn’t have to look it up. But anyway, it has a nice diversity of songs and if you decide to create your own station you can customize it to have your favorite songs- you just need to like the songs first, etc. I have one problem though- Whenever I use an app that has music and stuff, I turn the music and sounds off for that app but I can’t have the song I’m listening to resume. It’s a bit frustrating when this happens- I don’t know if it’s a part of Pandora or if it occurs because of the game I’m playing but it’s really annoying. But what I am trying to say is, is that Pandora is a great app to use if you want to listen to your favorite songs. So I definitely recommend it.

Best music app. I think this app is one of the best music apps it might not be the best but I think it’s the top three in the world I mean it’s my favorite music app so this app you can search any songs and there’s a 99 point 9% chance they are going to have the music you search I’ve never had a song that they don’t have they give you the latest update on music there is one down you have to watch ads to go on your playlist and once you search a song it’s added to your search list and you need to scroll down get it listen to it there is nothing wrong with this app I think it is perfect it’s just awesome I love music and my mom was like my mom had a different music app and she’s like you’re gonna stop listening to music on my phone and I got Pandora and I was obsessed with Pandora because it saves your favorite songs never gets rid of any music and you can just tap on The app and it’s awesome

Not happy. I pay for pandora premium every month for a long time now and every month so far when I go to listen to the playlists I made, they’re either not playable on offline mode when I have them downloaded, or they don’t show up in general. I have over 3000 different songs and over 120 playlists and only 5 are showing up. They keep in downloading themselves and won't show back up unless I go back through my profile page where my playlists are. Also when I open the app to listen to something and go to look a station or playlist, it freezes and buffers and won’t let me do anything on the screen and doesn’t force close itself or reset or even reset when I force close the app myself. I would really appreciate if you guys would look into this and fix it please. I like pandora but I don’t wanna deal with all my music disappearing at least once a day and having to re do 100+ playlists and 3000+ downloads. Thank you. Very disappointed with this. Please fix immediately!!! This issue has been a reoccurring one since I purchased my subscription. I dont think I should have to pay premium prices for a horrible system.

Veronica Andrade. Pandora filled my summer with exquisite songs and I found a lot of new music to listen to. I enjoyed the pleasant slow walks with quick steps in between running to soft calming tunes. I enjoyed the late night parties to Spanish music. I enjoyed the summer mornings spent playing basketball with my ball dribbling to the beat of drums. I could not put it into better words, but I felt like I was in love every single day in July and August. I cannot believe music has come this far. I cannot even trace where I found all such great music. The world definitely does not deserve Pandora because it gives more than we give back. I don't even have a favorite song. Because of all the great music Pandora has to offer. Rather I have a myriad of favorite songs ranging from R&B, pop, classic rock and romantic music. With artists like American Authors, OneRepublic, Pink, Daft Punk, and Taylor Swift. And favorite movie soundtracks like Paper Towns, Love Story, and Valerian. Love, yours truly, and number one listener: Veronica Andrade

Apple Watch. Okay I know that you guys got ride of this a while ago but I finally have time to talk about it. Why did you guys get rid of it I mean I loved it when I am listening to the app if I want to change the station or like the song etc I didn’t have to find my phone and unlock it to do that when all I have to do is on on my watch and do it. I mean when I am mowing my lawn if I want to do on of those things I don’t have to stop pull out my phone and then unlock it and so forth when I could just use my watch so I don’t have to stop. So I still don’t get why you guys got rid of it you can still make another app just for the Apple Watch and you can log into your account there too or you can bring it back just how it was or you can add a turn off Apple Watch mode so it won’t work it come up how it is on your phone if you guys want to do that. I just want it back it helped out a lot. Please bring it back.

Newest format is a let down.. I have been a paid customer for three years and have used Pandora for long since I chose to pay for it. The ads never bothered me even as the frequency increased, but I paid for the service because I liked the random music sequence. A few years ago I’d select or make a radio station and then keep editing it. A song might become too repetitive so I’d just mark “I’m tired of this song” and my station would start playing different music. I was able to get my stations tailor made to my liking through this setting, but since the beginning to mid 2017 I had this feature disappear on my iPhone. No problem, it was a annoying, but I’d just use my iPad. Yet, it seems that I the past few updates the format has been changed on the iPad too to get rid of this feature. In one of those updates some of my channels were deleted and I can’t find them on the browse genre option anymore. Also, without the option to place a track on temporary hold, I have to down thumb it, and the the song is lost forever on the station. Please bring back my old stations and the option to listen to random music while placing liked but overplayed songs on hold.

Meh. I listen to pandora pretty much everyday. For the most part I like it. Some of the things that drive me insane, though... some days, when I pause the music, doesn’t matter how long, when I push play i have to reload. I get really sick of the adds all of the time wanting me to upgrade. I get it, you want some money. I totally understand this. But asking me to upgrade for, what is it, less than five dollars a month 600 times in one day isn’t going to make my budget magically change to where I fee comfortable adding five dollars a month to it. Not quite a top priority right now with my bills. And why does the app crash in the middle of a song quite often on some days? I’d like to be able to search for an artist or a song by that artist and at least have that particular song be the first song I hear. Instead I get music that’s I may also like because of my search history. Well, I think hays enough complaining. Other than some of that stuff, like I said, I listen to Pandora pretty much everyday. I like it better than some of the other options out there.

I love this app but something just happened.... Okay, so this app is amazing. Just because you have to pay for no adds and offline use and all of that junk it's a great app. I've been using it for I think a year, maybe more, maybe less. I don't know. After the resent update, Pandora forces me to use my free trial for Pandora Premium. I was saving it for my next summer vacation so I could really enjoy it instead of just knowing I'm wasting my week of an amazing Pandora experience. At first, I had absolutely no idea what was going on and for a minute I thought I had bought the subscription and being a fourteen year old, I was super scared that I was charging my mother's bank account. So, Pandora, if you read this, your app is amazing, but please take away my free trial and let me save it!! Thank you! I haven't had any crashes, like ever. (The teenager came out sorry) so I'm not afraid of that. This app really deserves 5 stars except the free trial thing. Okay, so, all in all, this is a great app and you should really get it. It's the best one like it.

Definitely one of the best music apps (especially if you’re a YouTuber!). Ok hi this works really well, I am a YouTuber and I listen to this while I edit and make videos I am a Gachatuber so I have to do a lot of screenshoting, and although my videos take hours to make us makes it seem like minutes! As long as you can find some good music to listen to this app works really well to listen to it. You can easily listen to it while you edit or work on stuff, also figure I should say this because free advertising why not? My channel name is xXRiley_MochaXx i’m a very small YouTuber so if you’re gonna look it up (although you’re probably not) please type it exactly as that or just simply copy and paste it, ok after my shameless free advertising (lol) this is a really good app, good quality, free stuff (if you watch an ad wait does that mean it’s not free? Oh well you don’t have to pay money for it) ok bye just download this if you’re gonna do it

Woke radio app. I have been using pandora for years and this is what I have experienced. Why can't it just play music and quit trying to learn what I like. Also when you listen to an add so you can listen to a particular album then it seams you get 25-30 minutes to listen to the album and then it's back to what the machine wants you to listen to. I just want to listen to what I want to listen to not what is picked for me or what is forced down my throat. Here is another issue I am a follower of Jesus Christ and I believe his word is true and yes he is THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN. (I'm sure this will get revived because of this). Why must you Marxist believing company force homosexually on me! Every banner is the alphabet soup. Some MAN dressed as a WOMAN (only 2 genders) and talking in a very feminine voice and this SIN is applauded and celebrated on this horrible app. I just want to listen to music not be forced by you MARXIST who can't figure out which gender you are! I will never use Pandora again and I will not be quiet about the sinful acts/actions thy I see applauded here on this app. Another issue why must I sign up to play music so you can remember, keep track of what I listen to?

It keeps Crashing. Okay so I have zero complaints about this app what so ever, in fact I love this app and I recommend it to all of my friends and family who don’t have it. I just have a question. I know that the app was updated a few days ago and it’s never crashed like this before. I was listening to music and I accidentally closed it. I went to go open it back up and it would either just be a black screen with a blue bar at the bottom or nothing at all. I tried to open it a few more times( I got the same result which was nothing every time) so I restarted my phone and tried again. The same thing kept happening ( I went to other apps to see if it was just this one or others; it’s just this app). I have uninstalled and reinstalled this app and it doesn’t even open for me to re-enter my information to login. I REALLY LOVE THIS APP AND DONT WANNA GET RID OF IT. I don’t know what to do or how to fix it. Can you please help?

Continually having issues with out of place songs. I’ve really loved the Pandora app for at least 4 if not the last 5 years now! It’s one of my favorite apps on my phone! But I have a pretty big complaint: the thing is that almost daily, if not once or twice daily, I will be listening to the app, most prevalently this is as I’ve been listening to my Christmas music station for the last several weeks, and I will hear for example, “Oh Boy” by Buddy Holly, a song which is decidedly not Christmas on a station which is decidedly Christmas. That is something that happens way to often for me! It happens every once in a while on regular stations,a classical music piece for example will play on an oldies station, but it’s not nearly as bad as what happens with my “Christmas Classics” radio station on Pandora! Please fix this ASAP! Apart from these issues, I do want to say that really love my Pandora app! Thank you!

I love it!. I’ve used it for 3 years and it keeps getting better. Minus the commercials between songs that kills my vibe it’s great. I also get annoyed by only have a few song skips. I mean there’s a lot of songs I like and a lot I don’t like, so I like to thumbs them down and skip. But when I run out of song skips then I’m forced to listen to music I hate... so I usually get off the app then. It would be nice if when you both thumbed it down and skipped the song then the skip wouldn’t count. To me it’s different to hate a song and skip it then to just casually not be in the mood for a song that you like but just don’t want to listen to, so you skip it. But anyways, other than those two things it’s overall a great app! It has some great songs that I just have to download to my phone after finding out about them. It always has the newest and oldest of songs of every genre.👍🏼 I can say if you download it you won’t regret it.

Love, Music and Pandora. For people who truly love music Pandora is a godsend. There is a joy that That comes from a good surprise. With Pandora you don’t have to set up a playlist, so you’re never sure what song my play next. Pandora uses a song or band that you chose to start your station. They play music that is similar to your original chose. Pandora then uses algorithms that track your likes and dislikes of the songs that you have listened to in order to create a custom playlist for every user. I pay for the service that removes the ads and allows me to skip any songs or repeat any songs that I want.I have had Pandora for years and enjoy it so much that I stopped to write this small review. If you love music I think that you will also love Pandora. I hope that you give it a try. Music brings so much happiness to life, and with Pandora your music can always be with you. I don’t have to download hundreds of songs I can just listen to my music every were I go. I love music. I love Pandora.

The Best, but.... ...I’m super late to do a review for them, even though I’ve been a very long time follower and user of their service. I’ve been listening to Pandora since 2003. At first I wanted to try something new/different. As the years went by, not sure what they started doing. The ability to create a radio station out of ANY ARTIST or SONG was Great...but their music steaming/pattern how they played the next song and expose you to new ones became AMAZING. I tried other services/apps and they don’t come close. Pandora has it nailed. Unfortunately, they are extremely very slow(not sure why?) in the social department. Nothing has hardly changed since the old day. They could do sooooo much, almost rival Facebook, but they just don’t do anything. Imagine a custom Page, with every photo linked to a 30 second song. Take the features of Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and others BUT link songs streamed on Pandora. Give people a taste, and avoid your photo/videos being deleted because of copyright issues. Also having a social media page like Instagram for friends and family to look at. Bottom line is PANDORA is great as Music, but extremely slow to adapt to new times. It’s why I fear other services les music inferior will put them out of business. Hope they start turning things around. I love the music streaming service of it. Nothing comes close.

I love Pandora, but I have some concerns. I love Pandora, use it almost everyday, and have Pandora Plus. But I have some concerns. One being that quite a bit of songs I like have been made unrepeatable. Another is that they change songs and artists, for example on my station they replaced Avicii’s Wake Me Up with a version done by another artist and now I don’t get Avicii’s version but they still have his version in the app. Thirdly is the seeming lack of variety that I get. There’s been several times where I like a song by an artist and don’t get any other song by them, even though Pandora has more songs from them. I would hope that these get resolved at some point, and would also like it if they added more songs from artists like the plenty of TheFatRat songs there are that aren’t on Pandora. I still love Pandora despite these concerns and will continue to use it, and would recommend Pandora to anybody.

Used to be awesome but then.... I've been using Pandora for a couple years now I think. But after an update probably 6-8 months ago, Pandora no longer works with a USB cord - on players, in my car, nothing. This is really annoying because the USB allowed me to control Pandora through the radio/remote/device it was connected to and now I have to use an AUX cord. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and done everything I can think of to no avail. The Pandora Premium pop up is really annoying - shoving it in my face isn't going to make me buy it. Also, why, if I pause Pandora for more than ~15 minutes, does it "refresh" and start playing a new song?! On the app and site it does this. I don't want to pause it for long periods during songs I like because I'm afraid I won't be able to listen to the rest of it! And your ads are WAY louder than the music, which is REALLY OBNOXIOUS because I'll be jamming out and suddenly I'm blasted with a commercial (I'm already hard of hearing, you don't need to make it worse, kay thanks) Fix these issues and you'll be golden 👌🏼

Life expression through harmony of time an place of the poetically timed !. Life sounding exceptionally thought out melodies brought by all the unique personality perspective which derived to what ever one choses which is such a lovely way to share I’m so satisfied with all the sharing music applications because one has a opportunity to receive such a gift for free if one hasn’t the means to pay or if you chose one can pay an have many more options which in this time of existence we need all the opportunities of fun, inspiration , vast energies that we may have have noticed if we didn’t have the applications which is what Pandora allows an wants to share which is so so generous in our time of a is a very isolated period in terms of sharing with each other for which is at times get dreary though this application an others give us opportunities of a library of choice for free an that’s a blessing Me . Thank you Pandora so fortunate to be able to pay its well worth it !!!

Great Disappointment. I was really loving pandora. Playing music I knew and finding new music to love and then after a few weeks it started crashing. I followed the support directions: stop and close app, reopen: same error. Turn off device, turn back on: same error. Delete app, download app: same error. The support team the put a “trace” on my account supposedly. No error for 2 was. Then the error started back up, so I went back through the above steps, as advised by support who had a “trace” on my account. None of the fixes worked, and the “trace” apparently means nothing. Support then advised that I need to delete the app, and connect to my computer to sync my iTunes, then download the app...blah blah blah blah....Guess what? None of that crap worked either!!! Huge waste of time and effort! I fail to understand how iTunes is at fault, but pandora surely isn’t going to solve any problems, let alone take responsibility and fix their app. No no no...instead they are busy creating ridiculous processes that fix nothing, and useless updates. Great job pandora! Some may pay for the service, and perhaps that prevents the crashing, but there are other apps that provide much more, that are stable, and don’t play games through their support team.

Love Pandora! Avid user... BUT!. I love Pandora. I use it daily. It's awesome. Between my own personal use, and then playing for my kids while they play, we use it for hours and hours each day. BUT! I've got two problems with it: 1) for some reason, the app won't let me hit play from my lock screen after it's been paused for a few seconds. It just automatically re-pauses. I've gotta unlock the phone and then go back in and hit play that way. Not a big deal, but kind of annoying. 2) my biggest problem is the ads. Having Ads- not a big deal. It's the ad CONTENT that gets me. My kids will be listening to a Disney themed station or Veggie Tales station and an ad for Tampax or Trojan condoms will come on. I don't think those ads are very appropriate. If they're played after a certain time each night- sure, whatever. But this was in the late mornings and early afternoon on kid stations. I'll keep using Pandora. I love it! I'll just have to make sure I turn the volume off in a hurry if inappropriate ads pop up.

From Joe Swimmer〰🏊🏼〰. I really enjoy your Pandora, I listen to it all the time and it was the commercial’s that was worth while to me as well. I am a out side , blanket person pushing my shopping cart around helping others who are wealthy. I find they are unique but are in need of survival techniques and staying healthy on the out side. Pandora relaxes me and I can swim 🏊‍♂️ in the dirty bay water, ice cold water in the winter and jog miles down the coast to warm up. I live in a tent and wear swimming trunks and stay on the beach just like the wealthy do except I am closer to the water than they are and I don’t pay anything to live in my small homeless tent. Pandora gets me in the mood to move my tent down the beach when I get a three day notice to vacate my current spot. Pandora helps me look for food in back of dumpsters behind grocery stores. ( dumpster diving) so if you want, keep giving me Pandora and I will keep listening and have a marry Christmas and a great new year. Joe Swimmer 🏊🏼 in the dirty bay water

Need a update. It won’t let me make a picture or video when it the music is Playing and it is so annoying also I wish that I could Ask me if I wanted it to go to a different song like it I don’t now I don’t mean it would interrupt you right in the middle of the song saying would you like to go to another song OK so what I mean is at the end of it I it tells you if you want to go to another song no I have another update you could like for example I could tell the phone if I wanted to go to a different song so I would say when asked me do you want to go to another song I was at yes or no like it’s in it’s a yes or no or no question so I would respond with yes or no and that’s pretty much all and lots and overall the rest of it is awesome but 00 and I don’t think you should watch an ad to like be able to search something that’s like so stupid why would you guys do that And now the rest of it’s good and please do the updates that I told you or else I will give you another bad report and only one star this time and that time

Disappointed. I’m a long time pandora user and used to Pandora was about introducing you to new music based on number of thumbs up. So if I liked a song it took note and would generate more music like it to play next. I have stations and it’s all the same thing it might as well be a freaking playlist playa the same thing over and over. I normally keep it I shuffle to shuffle all my stations threw because I like variety and also surprise. But I’m now just sick with it. I miss the old pandora. It’s a plus the customer has more options and able to search for specific song and play it. But again I miss the days of where if I hit a thumbs up I wouldn’t be disappointed in music that played even now I can hit a thumbs down and low and behold I hear it come on like seriously?! Used to if I hit the thumbs down it would take it off immediately and would sort threw and not play music to that nature. I’ve had pandora so long hitting those thumbs the app should be nicely broken In to my music tastes but safely nope. Looking for a new outlet now seriously considering canceling my one membership.

An Unfortunate End.. I've used Pandora for almost a decade for my main source of music, and can remember discovering some of my favourite music here. However do to a recent and unfortunate experience, I will no longer be able to continue using them. This sudden change is do to the advertisements. Obviously pandora is free because of the add space they sell, and I'm generally understanding of this on any given day . Today however, was different. As I was waiting for the next song to play a rather unfortunate advertisement began to play, and it was incredibly disturbing to me. The advertisement was from a fringe political hate group that specifically fights for racial supremacy , a group that i consider the equivalent to a modern version of the Ku Klux Klan cult. Now I'm not usually one to get political, which is probably a reason why I'm so frustrated with this add, and in fact I avoid politics as much as possible, but this was over the line for me. I'm not going to get into who this group was exactly, as I don't believe they deserve any recognition, but unfortunately I will not be using this company again. People don't need political ideologies shoved down their throats, I just wanted to listen to some music man...

No longer in Denial. I’ve been in denial over the functionality of Pandora for over a year now. After years of free listening with manageable ads I found that the number, frequency and length of ads went up exponentially about a year ago. So I decided to upgrade. Commercial free and offline listening were big selling points to me. However it’s not really commercial free is it? I would have to play an ad to replay a song and sometimes even to skip. And don’t get me started on the offline listening feature. I am a commuter and am often on the subways and I find that not only do I have to have turned on the offline listening option before I’m underground but I only have a selection of maybe a dozen songs in that playlist. If I don’t switch to the offline listening option before I’m out of range there is no offline listening for me at all. Instead I watch as Pandora skips and buffers through dozens of songs as I listen to the complaints of commuters around me. I can’t honestly note a praiseworthy aspect of Pandora right now and since I’ve canceled my subscription I have such a sense of alleviation. I am no longer wasting money or energy over an app that doesn’t work.

Great App! But... Hi! I’ve been using Pandora for awhile. But not like 4 years or something 😅. I just want to say I love this app! I love how you can search the song you want! I honestly don’t have a problem with seeing an add when you search for the song. I kinda like the way you made the add it’s very creative to :). Anyway the reason I’m typing this is because recently the app has been having bugs like this morning ((on this date)) when I search the song I want and then after watching the add it looks like I’m gonna listen to the song but then it stops and says “Something went wrong”. And so I’m like oh ok, I’ll just try it again. Then after the add it says the same thing! I was a little irritated about it.. so I just wanted to tell you guys that there are some bugs going on in the app. Oh and another thing I wanted to say is that sometimes there’s a little to much adds when in on a radio I like. Anyway! So far I LOVE this app! It’s improved so much! ☺️ Respond if you can!

It’s the little things. I’ve been a long time user of pandora.. since middle school days which is more than 10 years, and I love every aspect of it, especially as a premium user.. but it’s getting to the point where it’s becoming repetitive.. for the longest Pandora would introduce me to new music based off of songs or artists I liked and that’s how I discovered new music.. but now if I try to find new music based off a song it just adds the music I’ve thumbed on other stations so I have to dislike a majority of the songs I liked on another station to make the station I’m listening to have similar music.. I’m all about listening to repeated songs.. but after awhile it gets tiring Another issue I’ve been having lately is the clearing of my offline stations/songs/ artist/ ect every time I’m logged out of the app which has been happening recently. Idky, and I don’t realize it until I’m at a point that I need to go offline. It’s the little things that really effect my feelings on this app. I would love to keep using it and being a premium member.. but if I wanna just repeat songs I’ll use and MP3 player

Switching apps skips songs. When I switch from a different app to Pandora the music either skips to the next song or stops playing all together. I'm not sure when this started but I've now had this happen across a variety of devices and systems. It happens usually if I'm streaming to some other device like Chromecast or a Bluetooth device. It's very irritating. I usually will switch back to Pandora if a song is on that I like and I just want to see the details but instead it stops playing the song. When I try to replay the song it just won't play. This happens from iPhones or iPads. This on top of no landscape mode on the iPhone X (or any iPhone) and really annoying ads. I don't mind ads if they make sense or tell me about something I might actually need or want but the ads on Pandora are some of the most annoying and irrelevant. Now replays don't work. I'm listening to the advertisement but it doesn't let me replay.

Want to Love It. I’ve been a Premium subscriber for several months after a long commitment to free Pandora with ads. I decided to subscribe when I started air travel again due to free downloads for long plane trips. I listen daily for hours on end. My major gripe is the lack of originality in the music selection during random play of a station. I consistently feel like I’ve heard every song multiple times and become bored. Yet when I look st the music catalog available for download it has some artists entire collection. Why can’t I get originality? If the algorithm is smart enough you would think it would learn that I’ve heard a dons 20 times this week. Also, the weekly “for me” playlists again is all the same stuff. Yes I could go to an artist and hit play and hear their entire catalog. Add a song to a playlist. Yes yes. I don’t want to! Please figure out a way to dig deeper in the station mix and throw me a bone. I’m bored.

Not easy to use. I love the music I’ve found, BUT they say one is a single artist Chanel or station or whatever and the next with the same name plays that artist and others . But how can you see the difference . I’m basically using two stations because I can’t figure out how to navigate or try new things. I have premium and I think I should have a much better experience than this. Maybe an online how to use the thing and separate it Into free, plus and premium . Meanwhile I have two stations that play a variety around that artist and I like that. The other complaint I have is some of the artist choose that artists music from the worst they ever did, I’ll use Stevie Ray Vaughn for an example. The “ station” was playing all from an early album almost anyone who knows his music would cringe. Many of those same songs are on live albums and are so much better. To get them I had to search . Then it played one live album over and over. Very disappointing. Not all of his live songs are on one album! Gets worse . Got premium family. All this great stuff you can supposedly do, but do they say how? No. So you really don’t have any thing you didn’t have free

Great app. Best music streaming app I’ve used. The low monthly payments are great for ad free listening, offline listening, and unlimited skips. In addition to the low (optional) monthly fee your playlist is fully customizable to your music taste. If you hear a song to many times you can simply press I’m bored of this song and it won’t play for a while. You can add many different genres to one playlist or you can add different bands of the same genre to your playlist. The app selects music related to the bands, songs, or genres you’ve selected. You can also mix it up and shuffle all your playlists together! Great app will use it forever thank you Pandora! The only thing I would like to see is macros or hotkeys with the volume button so I can skip and thumb up songs without stopping what I’m doing and simply use volume controls via side of the phone or volume control buttons on my headphones.(not sure if this is already a thing from what I’ve seen it is not yet a thing)

Why I love this app. I love this app because I can have songs when I have my phone off so it will be able to not die when I don’t have a charger and I can play other games while I’m listening to music music which is amazing I love your guises game will app Pandora is the best app I’ve used and I hope everyone gave you five or four stars not three are down I don’t think you guys deserve 32 or a one star I think you guys deserve five or for at least four but I say five I like how you guys can do an interview I likeI like how you can change times and you want to have different thumbs up thumbs down I don’t really like the ad but that’s OK you don’t really have ads and I like how you can just search Music or little search I like how you can change sounds and you want to have different thumbs up thumbs down I don’t really like the ad but that’s OK you don’t really have ads and I like how you can search Music or a little search you know I mean and I really like it I’m glad I can tell you guys this

I’ve got questions 🤔🤨. Ummm.....Im sad like REALLY sad cuz I LOVE LOVE LOVE music!! Yet I have problems with this app I wouldn’t recommend listening to Stronger Than You Chara version by Karaiinu because it just quiets the song as if u turned it down like what, 7 NOTCHES!! So u turn it up and everything seems okay.....UNTIL THE NEXT SONG PLAYS!!!! Then it’s booming loud!!!😡😡 Also as others have listed you have a playlist mine has oh, you know, like 57 songs and I know like that’s a LOT see I love music and have like fifty stations and playlists! But ya u play ur playlist and like 11 or so songs later you here what sounds like a short ringtone or something like that and it goes to the last station you left off on! Plus when u like listen to ur playlists on shuffle but have to watch an add first,wich I’m fine with but I like CLEARLY clicked shuffle and they play IN ORDER?!? Like BRUV seriously 😒 I mean it’s not a big deal probably to u guys but to me I HATE IT!!! Just my opinion. I mean even with these problems I still always listen to pandora! I’m actually listening RIGHT NOW as I write or type this review sorry if this is really long! BYE LOVE!🌺🌸💙🤍❄️🟥🟧🟨🟩🟦🟪

Upgrade is not there yet. I have been a loyal Pandora subscriber since the day it came out. Have always had the commercial free service and have loved it. I use Pandora everyday and full disclosure, I am a share holder in the stock. However, with the new Premium account there are a few things missing or almost impossible to find. I liked my stations in alphabetical order. What happened there? I also want to delete a station or now delete a song on a play list. You can’t delete anything anymore. It’s frustrating when you have used something for so long and have REALLY ENJOYED the ease of use and now have an entirely new learning curve. By the way, make sure you are off your home wi if and far enough away from your home before you go into Cell service mode. You will have to pull over and work things out. It can’t be done on the fly anymore. Hopefully all of these small issues will be fixed soon.

Amazing. So I’ve had this for like my whole life and I’ve always loved it but now I’m actually discovering new songs they I absolutely love like; Wildest Dreams by Taylor Swift, Scars to Your Beautiful or whatever it’s called, Don’t Stop the Music by Rihanna(I think) and lots more, but if the person who made pandora is reading this, you are genius. Pandora is my absolute FAVORITE music app so if you see this review, I would definitely recommend this app and just delete all of your other music apps because no matter how hard you try to convince me, I will never get even close to thinking about deleting Pandora so I hope I convince someone that pandora is the best music app and if you are already this far you might as well just get pandora already because I have no idea what else I could do to convince you just please get pandora already because if you don’t get pandora I might as well just give up on trying to convince you because my hand is starting to hurt.

Great app, just could use some tweaks. Pandora is one of my favorite apps. I listen to it almost daily. Nearly daily, however, it suffers little issues that frustrate me. Examples: The thumbs up/down feature is cool, but crude and its true functionality is in clear. Consider: A song comes on that I like, but it’s a live version. I hate listening to live versions of songs. So is that a thumbs up or down? Lately, if I have been listening for a while and my phone has gone into sleep mode (not sure that is the proper term), I’ll open the phone again and the pause/play button will be locked. The phone isn’t locked. Other controls work, but I can’t stop/start the music without starting a different station. Very frustrating. One more: I started a new station by picking a band (Alabama). Sure enough, first song was a live version of a mediocre song. I skipped the song. The next few songs that came up were non-Alabama songs I liked - songs I would like on an Alabama station. Thumbs up. No more Alabama songs. I quickly stopped thumbing up, then started skipping. Finally, I thumbed down some songs I actually liked. After an hour of music, Pandora had only played three crappy Alabama songs or crappy versions of good Alabama songs. I quit the station and deleted it. Next day I tried again and had a much better, but not great experience with a new Alabama station. Wonderful, magical, but sometimes very confusing.
